Plagued ruined by ignorance
Blinded to the threat
Comes the winds of change
From which we will not recover
Infested with rats
They came in droves
With the intentions
To overthrow
Rotten to the core
The cancer crept in
Now its under the skin
Fighting war from within
They came to conquer
To rape
To pillage
They'll burn it to the ground
Destruction cannot be envisioned
People made a poor decision
To leave them unhindered
Countless thousands have been murdered
The rivers of blood continue to flow
The numbers in their armies continues to grow
What government you bestowed
That will not defend your home
As we chase them in their droves
Wearing blackened robes
Inverted crosses burning
We will massacre them
Back beyond the border
Until the threat is gone
And we've restored order
If you run from this fight
You'll gain no glory
Only sleepless nights
There is no room for cowards
As hour after hour
Our culture is devoured
The restoration of order
Will start with the sound of murder

The stonemason
Carves the stone
The druid points to
Capricornus
The symbols of our time
Etched into eternity
A relic of our history
Left to become a mystery
As a new dawn comes
The past is gone
Repurposed and recycled
Until it's meaning is none
Born from the decay
Of collapsing stars
Capricornus reigns
Above the Winter's sky
The Druid
Ignites the Clavie
The flames we ignite
Illuminate the darkened night
A tradition
Older than any book
Passed through the generations
Refusing to be lost
A part of our history
Never written never taught
Thousands of years
Preserved without text
A right of passage
Of which secrets are not shared
Keepers of Ancient Knowledge
Told only amongst ourselves
Yet when we rot
The atoms that bound us
Break and transcend
Across the galaxy
As we enter taciturnity
The atoms that makes us
They do not break
They are the seeds
From which tomorrow
Is crafted and born
The broken arrow and the crescent
Remind us that we came
From the skies we live
And return when we die
The double disc represents
The Torch Bearers of your flame
As above so below
Born of stone to kill the bull
We came from the stars
We live we die we decay
The cycle repeats as we transcend into
Eviternity
The beast we leave on our stones
Is the sea-goat Ea, Enki, Pan
Marking the darkest day
Longest night before the dawn

The more I witness
The more I see
Countless thousands
Arrive from overseas
History repeats
But no one's willing to speak
Our culture begins to vanish
Taken from under our feet
Comes among the horde
A preacher
Who professes to be
A spiritual leader
The desecration of temples
Slowly starts to begin
The toppling of monuments
No longer seen as a sin
Be careful of the ones
Who you let in
The true intentions
Are often kept within
What we once held sacred
Has been converted
You should have been weary
Of unwarranted benevolence
The evolution of culture is inevitable
It has been a constant
For all of time
Yet the reality is
It's who defines your culture
That will end up defining
Tomorrow's future
The desecration of
Freedom of thought
I resent
All of which has been brought
From someone who's
Allegiance is to
Imaginary beings
Who's words were never spoken
But written by man
What is the point of being aware
If you refuse to think for yourself
You have chosen to stay in a cell
Whilst possessing the keys to your own liberation

From the other side
Of the Universe
Atoms travel
Ions gaining mass
We were forged
Deep inside the cosmic womb
From the collapse of ancient stars
Created from their tomb
Stellar mass ejection
Is what has given us
A chance at creation
As above, so below
Anthropogenic cancer
Came down from the stars
But with death
Comes the rebirth
We forget the Universe
Exists beyond this planet
Our fate is dictated
Outwith our control
The death of this planet
As it returns to atoms
Entropy that will occur
We can barely fathom
Turned to dust
Blasted through space and time
Our death will become
The seeds that fertilise the cosmos
The end of the human race
Is inevitable
It's just a matter of when
Will it take place
All we do is
Accelerate the process
So sure of our survival
Waiting for the great annihilation
Bring forth the majesty of destruction
And the melody of slaughter
Let the skies implode
Bring an end to this pestilence
Waves like walls
Crashing into every city
Deluge removes the plague
Form of cosmic chemotherapy
The universe is indifferent
To the plight of humans
In an instant
It will end us all
Bring forth the comet
That creates the waves to end it
Bring forth the deluge
To test the survival of the fittest

Flesh of the Gods
Your body is the
Colour of blood
You are covered
With stars
To consume your flesh
Is to leave your soul
A trip so extreme
Many mere mortals
Have been crushed
By it's awe-some power
An organism
That lives underground
That can sustain life
For Millennia
It's fruit
It brings above the soil
For it can pass truth
To whoever is willing
To consume
It's body
And experience
A temporary death
Drifting among the universe
Seeing with eyes
That cannot comprehend
Witness your body
Being torn to pieces
Witness your ego
Become severed from your conscience
Fractal patterns emerge
Through the silhouette of a tree
You can see
The universe surrounded by a
Spectrum of moving colour
You are lifted
From this Universe
And dropped into
A higher dimension
A world of nothingness
Orbs of light who bare no names
Yet who held all the answers
Orbs of light
Talk to me
For I am willing to
Listen
They bring forth
A transparent reflection
Of my soul
Yet I do not
Like what I see
But yet they guide me
To see what is hidden inside
You do not return the same
Your mind has been unlocked
For you are the serpent
For you ate the fruit
Which others would not dare

The invaders
Come ashore
Bringing false prophets
Those sons of whores
Demanding our surrender
These pretenders
Trying to usurp our throne
Unaware of how hostile
This land can be
Don't you learn
No matter what you blame
You are always defeated
Your King is always slain
Don't you see
The Picts cannot be ruled
Untamed Highland Beasts
Ready to be unleashed
Fear the Serpent
For we come from
The stars above
Under the guide
Of Capricornus
Our culture
Will never be erased
It appears you've joined us
As we walk into
Darkness
A world devoid of light
You've chosen poorly
For even in peace
We're ready for war
Land of
The Warrior's Cult
From Sumeria
To Pictavia
Final holder's
Of a dying flame
Without fear
We embrace death
Battle unhindered
For warriors return to the skies
Embrace it's glory
Or fear it's call
Tough times
Breed tough people
And we are no exception
There is a reason
Why even
After 1000 years
You can still hear
Tales of our conquests
Legends of our existence
Pictish Pride
Stems World Wide
Brothers of Mithras
Sons of Pictavia
Rise
Rise
Awaken from your aeonic slumber

The Black King
05:25
|

The Kingdom's crown
Lays unclaimed
Under a bridge
You'll find the King's remains
War is over
Invasion has begun
Druids leads insurgents
As the poets scatter
Children run in fear
Mother's in despair
Ground covered with cadavers
Death is in the air
No shelter to find
As you watch the villages burn
Screams of slaughter
Echo through the mountains
Comes an eclipse
That blocks out the sun
Reigning for night and day
Until the King's body is found
The Black King Is the proof
That even upon his throne
The Picts cannot be ruled
Feral highland savages
A proud people
Who were once their own Kings
Will not bow down
To foreign claimants
Send your armies
We pick death over servitude
You will see
It can be taken but never held
The Kingdom's crown
Lays unclaimed
Under a bridge
You'll find the King's remains
